Great location and clean!
Old hotel but very clean! Great location and large room for the the price. Strange lock situation though… the room key provided that opens the front lobby also opens your door… and there’s no safe in the hotel room—something to keep in mind for solo travellers

Pleasant and convenient stay
Very convenient position, staff friendly and helpful, very clean. Not a grand place but we stayed happily here. Beds comfortable, shower hot! Our room faced a courtyard and was very quiet.

A Simple Place to Roost
A quiet, simple, hostel-like place, almost hard to find, in a fabulous and convenient area of Vienna. WiFi was poor at the time of our stay. In-house breakfast is only on Sunday, but vouchers for a nearby food court are given for other days. The owner Mr. Bobak was warm and helpful.

The hotel does not look anything like the picture shown on the Internet. It has a hole in the wall that you have to find with great difficulty. It is an ordinary door that leads to a very ordinary interior no ground building for sod as shown here. There was no staff when we arrived And the building was difficult to access. We found that our key had been left at a desk which was also difficult to find. We did like this manager who we met in the morning and the staff were very friendly. The manager helped us out with some bus tickets that we needed so we were very grateful for that.

Happy in Vienna
A basic, second floor pension (There is a lft) in an old, classic building on a very busy shopping street. Centrally located, near main city center with a Ubahn station directly in front of the door. Well marked and easy to find. Very convenient, but noisy. Staff was friendly and welcoming. Room was bigger and nicer than expected. Well appointed, with a large window overlooking the street. (Interesting but noisy.) Clean except for a little accumulated dust on a door frame. No AC, but fan. Wi-fi ok. Overall, a great value for a city center, basic lodging.

Easy walk to city center but charmless
In a good location and clean, but this place doesn't have much else going for it. The room is spacious but feels a little bit like a dungeon... dark and in dire need of modernization.

Great location but some problems
The front desk had a hard time finding our reservations ....we had to come back later because I think they weren't ready for us. They gave us a much bigger place than we had booked which was OK but someone had been smoking there and the smoke triggered my allergy problem. The kitchen wasn't well outfitted...poor pots. Otherwise we enjoyed staying there for two days.

My room was small but big enough for me. In the bathroom was one of these artificial Smell things that I don't like … and in front of the Hotel on the street was an annoying "ticking" noise. Anyway… it's close to the center and the staff was VERY kind and helpful. So, for everyone who does not want to spent his time in Vienna in the bathroom ;-) and will be tired enough from visiting this wonderful city to sleep well even with some background noise (only if you need to sleep with an open the window…): this is just the right place, especially with regard to the price!

Great location
Our room was on the mezzanine level. The room was clean and very spacious. We are a family of five and had lots of room to spread out. The decor was plain but functional. The shower was very small. The main problem was the horrible cigarette smell in the room, we couldn't get rid of. It came from the other apartments in the building due to poor ventilation. On the first day our room was cleaned - beds were made and towels changed. On the second day it wasn't. The policy in this matter is unclear to me.

Central location with pretty well everything within walking distance. Very quiet but dated building. On the first floor, we slept with windows open,(no air conditioning), but we could hardly hear a wisper from the street below.

Clean room and accessible location
A friend and I shared a double room. Its furnishings were simple but clean, and there was sufficient space for the two of us. The refrigerator in the room was a very welcome perk. The location is right outside an U-bahn stop (Neubaugasse) on a main shopping street (Mariahilfer Strasse), and it is only about a 20-minute walk to Vienna's center. The street can be a little noisy at night, especially if you leave the window open to cool off. Breakfast was across the street at the café/grocery store and was tasty but little more than a continental breakfast. Staff were polite and helpful. Our only disappointment was that the wifi was unreliable.

Perfect location
This hotel has great position regarding couple of key things: exploring the main attractions of the city and shopping. In fact, being located in Mariahilfe strasse exactly means that you're almost "in the heart" of the city. Also, Pension Mariahilfe offers discount price for few parkings nearby (18 euros per day, instead of 3.5 euros per hour). Speaking about accomodation I would like to make a comment: don't expect much, rooms are very small. I have a problem with reservation...Although I've got the confirmation from Hotels com (quadruple room, free breakfast, free wi-fi), the staff refused to offer breakfast :(

Very basic pension
I booked this hotel for one night to be very close to the meeting venue. I am not sure if I want to book again for that price. It is ok if you need spend very little time in the actual room, it is very dated, it is located inside residential building. Said said I stayed in another hotel in different part of vienna and the it was also dated. The breakfast is not severed inside the hotel, they give a coupon and it is served in shopping mall opposite the hotel.

Excellent position of hotel
We spent five nights at the hotel. We found the reception very willing to help on all occasions. The hotel has been established for a long time, therefore a few things needed updating but they don't affect the comfort of the place. Breakfast which was at the Merkur - an excellent hypermarket directly opposite the hotel was excellent.

Two perfect SILENT nights!
Pension rooms all seem to open onto an atrium rather than the street. Very, very quiet at night. Super comfortable mattresses. New bathroom. Nice persian rugs in hallways. Wonderful cafe on Neubaugasse nearby. Ubahn Neubau station is literally out the front door.

Lage toll, wir haben ein kleines Zimmer Richtung Innenhof erhalten. Deshalb Ruhe in der Nacht. Im Zimmer gab es auch ein kleiner Kuehlschrank, was sehr hilfreich war. Alles sehr sauber, der Bad hat aber leider keine Entlueftung. Insgesamt aber empfehlenswert.
